You guys ever self sabotage once you start doing better at things?

I am hitting that range now where it can appear like I have gone to the gym before to people. I have reached this stage many times when younger then gave up. The getting to this stage is a grind where its full of me dreaming of getting to some big goals but not even being close to it

Now I am seeing actual results and the pressure comes on of becoming actually good at what I am doing or even above average. I tend to quit things around this area or I spin wheels.

Anyone else? How did you overcome this? What is wrong with me

It's like I am afraid of being successful

Your anxiety is why you are repellent to women. You should see someone for it.

I kind of do with jobs. I usually do a great job out of the gate like a fucking idiot and soon enough I’m being handed more work than is reasonable for the pay and then I walk away.

You have to learn to enjoy the process first and foremost. If you can't enjoy the process to get to a goal, accept that you won't get to that goal and find something better to do. I will never be as physically fit as I was in my late teens and early 20's, but I can still enjoy pushing myself as I maintain fitness into middle age while others deteriorate into fat decrepit slobs with chronic illnesses and pains.

Dr. Shekelberg? Therapy is for women and faggots.

I understood long ago, I can't reach goals that are not my desire.

I have no desires except retirement.
That's too far.

just old habits trying to hold you back, the best thing to do in those moments is exactly the thing you are trying to get out of doing, everytime those feelings come up its the old you hanging onto old comfortable routines, you're nearly their.

I just laid in bed for 80 hours straight during my 3 day weekend because being awake is painful and humiliating

Happens to me too. But I have gone to the gym many years.

The best thing is to enter a state where it's as normal as lunch.

I have gone to the gym in slacks after work (and done arms and benchpress) I have gone to the gym smelling like shit or maybe I forget my towel.

I use 5/3/1 and just print out a workout and try to complete it. I don't go super hard anymore since I almost fucked up my shoulder with 315 lb bench. I'm 34 btw and if I stop going I WILL be a fat fuck.

Also don't forget to do cardio. My favorite being 10 mile walks while listening to an audiobook.

Don't really understand what I'm trying to say here, but remember that the gym is about is important as playing video games. So if you play VR chat or Marathon for 5 hours a day try to clock in 5 hours per week at the gym. Hope this helps.

You should be lifting every day. I would if I was English and had brown people trying to kill me constantly.

Indecision is the key to flexibility
Excellence often festers attachment, which makes one suspectible to manipulation/corruption/blackmail

Most animals just want to live as the crow flies, they dont like wearing the same mask everyday, though it can be fun to try different ones on to get a sense what its about.

Ill never understand the "your better than him" people, i think at its root is a dark pathology that seeks to predate what they determine is the lesser

Afraid of finding out that your actual potential is less than the internal version of yourself.

Get beat in a videogame? Make an excuse that the other guy is a no-life tryhard.
Progress slows down at the gym? Better quit now before you have to come to terms with average genetics, work ethic, etc..

Self sabotage to avoid ego damage. You aren't afraid of being successful. You are afraid of evidence that you aren't the best guy in the world.

Happens to all gay guys like yourself.

If you are healthy and you have time, go to the gym. No excuses.

Or he is just lazy and establishing a routine that lasts takes self-discipline. Your psychoanalysis pseudoscience is gayer than monkeypox faggot. Self discipline is the most difficult thing in the world. What he described was literally just the new years resolution cliche of someone going to the gym and not sticking around. It’s not that deep pradeep
